I lead a team of 15 Technical project managers and 15 UNIX support staff. During this time we managed our way through the millenium bug, 2 changes of ownership and finally a wind down of the organisation.Before I left I spent 6 months running a project office with 2 admin staff responsible for the overview of all it projects in the organisation which was by that time around 800 people.

I served in the Advanced Technology (London) department specialising in the insurance and telecommunications verticals. I worked in various roles on projects for clients such as SAGA Insurace, Winterthur Insurance (Switzerland), Lloyds of London, AT&T Unisource (Holland + Sweden).

I started as a programmer and then worked as a data transfer specialist working out how to move new clients databases from their legacy system to MCS LTDs platform. This required many techniques as it was before the days of the internet and many formats were very obscure.I then joined the engineering department and ran the project to move the entire MCS platform from Digital VAX VMS to UNIX. This work included not only the software transition but also constructing new processes for customer support, technical support and for our field service engineers who were trained Digital VAX specialists and who now has to learn how to swap and maintain Intel Servers in he field to demanding SLAs.I also architected the transition to the internet and the early construction of online SAAS models. I even created a windows based web browser for our clients.
